Enable uploading ramdisk to target img.zip

For some devices, the img.zip package needs to contain the ramdisk
in order to enable device-specific flashing to work properly

This change adds a new flag BOARD_IMG_USE_RAMDISK to the possible
device Makefile configuration. If set to true, the build process
will insert ramdisk.img in the target-files.zip and img.zip
build outputs of "m dist". No change will occur for builds
that do not use this flag, or set it to a non-true value.

      BOARD_IMG_USE_RAMDISK added to Makefile;

Android Make Build System

This is the Makefile-based portion of the Android Build System.

For documentation on how to run a build, see Usage.txt

For a list of behavioral changes useful for Android.mk writers see Changes.md

For an outdated reference on Android.mk files, see build-system.html. Our Android.mk files look similar, but are entirely different from the Android.mk files used by the NDK build system. When searching for documentation elsewhere, ensure that it is for the platform build system -- most are not.

This Makefile-based system is in the process of being replaced with Soong, a new build system written in Go. During the transition, all of these makefiles are read by Kati, and generate a ninja file instead of being executed directly. That's combined with a ninja file read by Soong so that the build graph of the two systems can be combined and run as one.
